Neighbourhood in Southwest Calgary. 25% is low income, and has a high rate of immigrants. Some streets in Glenbrook look a lot worse than Forest Lawn, but doesn't have a bad reputation like Forest Lawn. Sometimes referred to the "ghetto" of Southwest Calgary. The local junior high has had hostage takings like it's no big deal. Most of the minorities in the neighbourhood are Lebanese, Black and Latino and is mostly a renting community.

The HIGH school in Northbrook Illinois filled with everyone from basic white girls to crackheads. Everyone's still either white or asian, and it constantly feels like hell

Rival school to Glenbrook North, GBS kicks GBN's ass at pretty much everything. Especially football, since GBN decided to drop out of the district league because they couldnt win any games. Plus GBS actually has a few black kids. Glenbrook South is also known for throwing down sick rages. Home of many lax bros, the ultimate lax bro was inspired by this school.

Glenbrook North is located on the North Shore of Chicago residing in Northbrook. It is ranked in the top 10 schools in IL.
Most students at GBN well-off white Catholics or Jews.People for the most part are pretty nice, although they get shallower with the years. People like to exaggerate about how hard GBN is, but it is only hard if you're taking 6 AP classes out of 8 periods.
Almost all of the students are involved in GBN in some way, shape, or form through sports or clubs. There is a club for EVERYTHING, and if there isn't a club to support your interest, it is not at all hard to start your own because students are pretty open minded and supportive of each other. GBN's rivals are Glenbrook South and Deerfield. Granted, GBN does have some not-so-good sports, but the best ones are basketball, swimming, soccer, volleyball, hockey, and lacrosse. OK so we're good at a lot of sports... What can we say? On the other hand, the fine arts program is also top-notch, and the collaborative musicals put on every year between GBN and GBS seem almost professional.
GBN's facilities are state of the art and constantly undergo renovation. Teachers are very helpful and generally do their best to give students extra attention during their office hours if needed.
Overall, GBN is one of the most well-rounded and greatest schools on the North Shore. Go Spartans!

A high school that resides in Glenview, Illinois. Rivals of it are Glenbrook North Spartans and Loyola Ramblers. The mascot of the school is Tommy the Titan. Glenbrook South honestly has some utterly horrible sports teams besides swimming, track, and lax. Lax bros are not uncommon.
Kids are very diverse..there's a club for EVERYTHING. You see crazy looking kids and almost everyone is accepted. But you would be lucky to spot a black kid...there is probably a grand total of 3 throughout the whole school.
There's a bunch of really smart bitches and the debate team is great or something. We can kick GBN's ass in almost everything except wrestling. Known for a Grammy-winning music program and kids are allowed to say 'fuck you' to teachers and give them the finger and no consequences would be served. Some fuck up kids smoke weed in the bathrooms. Live's good at GBS

Glenbrook South (GBS) is a high school located in a conservative, Christian, and wealthy suburb north of Chicago, Illinois. The high school is predominantly white and filled with spoiled young adults who live in complete oblivion. Want to have a genuine conversation about current social issues? not going to happen here. Students have absolutely no concept of racism, sexism, classism, or homophobia. For fun, students typically go to the movies, bowling, or aimlessly walk around the Glen. When they are not taking part in these activities they are consuming drugs as an escape mechanism due to the fact that they live in Glenview, a boring American suburb.
"Sup bro? After class lets hit up the glen get blazed eat at potbellys sneak into the movies and watch Mr. Poppers penguins. And when we get out I'll call my friends brothers cousin and see if he can pick us up some Keystones so we can drink in my basement (common Glenbrook South pastimes)."
